Well, theres a scariest story topic, well, going through my dads pictures it brought up a memory so everyone share yours as well.
Well, the night was snowy so the roads were slushy, especially my road which was salted after we got about 10 inches, and then another 10 fell before they plowed. I was carving in a field 2 miles or so from my house and I whipped around and the sled rolled over. Flipped it back over and it refused to restart, even after changing the plugs and clearing the motor out with the plugs out. It just wouldnt start. I pulled and pulled and pulled for about 15 minutes. Finally gave up and took the belt off and had my dad tow me home. When we were just coming onto my road off the trail, we went up over a snow bank, one that had a very odd angle on it. As we went over my dad was able to power over it and keep level. Well, for me thats a different story. I tried to muscle it to the left but it still rolled right. The sled landed on me and my dads sled never even felt a tug as my sled became a toboggan sliding down the road. He dragged me for about 20 feet through the slushy snow and mud before realizing my sled was NOT right side up. I rolled the sled off me when he stopped and we laughed it off and he towed me back home. Just for laughs, right when we were pulling up to the garage I pulled the rope. Fired first pull.
